M. K. ClIUUCH. Sunday was a good day at
Methodist church. The class-meeting at (J:30 was a real spiritual feast. A large congregation greeted the pastor at the hour for preaching service. The theme chosen for discussion was "The Church, an Imperative Necessity." Text: Haggai UK The Jews had returned from captivity and had resumed their former pursuits. Their elTorts were directed toward material things to the neglect of the spiritual. The Lord's home was
yet a waste place. God, through thjfc
prophet, told them that not even material prosperity would come to them
until they establish a place of worship.
The church is a necessi'y not a luxury
to any community. It is the only ex
poneni of religion and religion lies at
the base of all national life. No na
tion rises abovo its religion. People are
righteous in proportion as they know
God. The mission of the church is to import this knowledge. 1 he church exists for the defense of the state. The state recognizes this and in many ways fosters it. The church is the world's greatest institution of reform. It is also mediatorial in its otfice bringing
man and God together. It is a sacrificial institution. It is the world to serve not to Pe served. It must not seek ease
but duty. It must stay where most
needed and rot where best supported
The church exists not for its membership, nor alone for those who attend its
services, but for the entire community.
Ours is a social as well as a personal re l gion. Hence the church demands so
cial as well as a personal righteousness.
It stands for the home, for virtue and
the sanctity of marriage, for business ictegrity, for justice between man and
his fellows, for social purity, for the
highest patriotism; hence it is a bul
wark of defense and a tower of strength to the municipality, the state and the
nation. It is worthy of the most liberal
suppoit and the truest devotion of all. The Sunday-school was large and the
lesson most interesting. The Epworth League was well at
tended and many participated in the
service. The subject was "Denomina
tional Work." We work through but
not for a denomination. We work with
all denominations for the saving of the
world.
Missionary meeting has been postponed one week because of the soldier's
reunion.
There was one accessio ; by letter at

rUESBYTEKIAN CHUUC1I. Congregations of average size attend
ed the services Sunday. The sermon
at 10:30 a. m. was from the words, "Watch therefore," "Be ye also ready."
Two futures exist for every individual
though he may not live in and for them
both. They are the near-by future, the
future of the next hour, day, year; and
the wide-stretching future, the future of infinitude, of the immortal spirit
"a proof of the divine within us, of the
(iod-like origin of the sons of (Jod.1
The worldly-minded live only in the
near-by future. And being thus spirit
ually near-sighted, or it may be wholly
blind, they are utterly unable to think
on the eternal years. But the child of Goi is able to look into that future
which stretches far beyond the horizon of hours and years the future which
stops net short of the bosom of the Infinite. It is this future that men are bidden to behold, for he who lives most in it lives best in the other. Therefore
we are to watch, believing in and look ing for the coming of Christ, particu
